Freshman Class
Figures Show Rise in
Minority Enrollment
by Janine Leigh Kramer
QC Copy Editor
This year's freshman class
consisted of 345 students. This is
not a large increase over last
year's incoming class of 338.
However, the percentage of minority students rose to 42.6%,
which is a 3% increase over last
year and a 14.6% increase over
the last two years.
Hispanic students represent
27% of the incoming class, 3%
more than last year. All enrollment by minority students rose
slightly. Asian-Americans represent 11%, African-Americans
represent 3%, while American-
Indians represent only 2%. International students, who are in
a separate category, make up 3%
of this year's class.
Academically, this class has
slightly higher GPAs and SAT
scores than last year's incoming
freshmen Also, 56% of new students were in the top one-fifth of
their high school class.
"We are very proud that we
were able to increase the ethnic
representation of the freshman
class, while at the same time
increasing the quality of students," said Tom Enders, Dean
of Enrollment.
This was the first year that
the percentage of those who participated in volunteer activities
was compiled. According to the
class of 1997 profile, 42% of this
year's freshman class were involved in helping their high
school communities. "However,
since the application never asked
if a student had participated in
volunteer activities, we had only
the numbers of those who chose
to write about this on their application. The actual number is
probably higher," added Enders.

New City Ordinance
Targets Loud Parties
by Benjamin Hubble
QC Staff Writer
According to a recently
passed Whittier City Ordinance,
if the police are called to a house
twice within a twelve-hour period, the responsible party will be
fined a minimum of $75.
City Ordinance #2603, also
called the "Loud Party Ordinance," took effect on June 18,
1993, and allows the Whittier
Police Department to charge the
responsible party for all actual
police personnel and equipment
costs used during the second and
subsequent visits.
Lt. Steve Milakovich of the
Whittier Police Department explained that the ordinance means
that the police will issue a written warning the first time they
are called to a home.
The warning states that if
the officers have to return to the
residence within twelve hours,
the responsible party will be fined
a minimum of $75 in addition to
any other citations issued. If the
cue responsible does not pay the
fine, a lean may be placed on the
residence which would then have
to be paid by the owner of the
hnusft
The passage of the "Loud
Party Ordinance" was not a direct result of problems with Whittier College students, stated Lt.
Milkovich. "Theideaof the "Loud
Parry Ordinance started in the
beach cities and has spread
throughout California. The ordinance simply gives the police the
